The FDA just released a document, Tainted Dietary Supplements and Foods: Responsibilities of Retailers and Distributors that gives a list of red flags to look for to spot potentially tainted supplement products. Yes, bodybuilding products are on this list. Now, I know many hardcore bodybuilders who see this will think that they should thank these companies for providing them with steroid drugs and trying to do it under the radar. And they will say, of course, that the FDA is just stomping on their rights to buy such products.

They are missing one crucial point. "Tainted" means the drug ingredient is NOT LISTED on the label. You have no way of knowing it's in there. Regardless of how you feel about anabolics, people who are knowledgeable about them will agree that you should be aware of which ones you are using! Otherwise the results could be quite dangerous in the case of pre-existing medical conditions or prescription drugs you may be taking.

So don't be gullible, Mr. Hardcore Bodybuilder, these vendors do not sneak in these ingredients to stick it to the man and do you, the bodybuilder, a favor, they do it so that they can deliver results that should not be attainable from a mere dietary supplement. And they obviously do not give a darn if some of those results are harmful. The "good" results will be attributed to their supplement and the bad results will never be traced to it, often. with most of these recalls the FDA reports that "no adverse effects have been reported yet". If you're dumb enough to want to take a pill without knowing exactly what is in it and to also think that it is "awesome" that your supplement has stuff in it you didn't know about, then you're pretty dumb. You're not dumb? Ok, then apply some rational thought to things instead of applying your over-emotionalized need to be massive to it.

We are not going to see many cases like the Hydroxycut liver damage cases. Few will ever attribute any ill effects to a supplement they are taking and supplements are still by and large viewed as "natural and safe".

Here are the red flags the FDA said to watch out for:

Watch Out for These Red Flags

Product Categories:

• Sexual Enhancement

• Weight Loss

• Bodybuilding • Diabetes

Labeling claims like:

• “Alternative to [approved drug product]”

• “Do not take if you have any medical condition, if you are taking any prescription medications,
or if you are pregnant”

• “May cause positive result in performance enhancing drug test”

Labels primarily in a foreign language

Beware of mass solicitations (particularly emails) from suppliers and wholesalers offering
products in the above categories.

Directions and warnings that resemble FDA approved drug products

Now, I find it hard to believe that anyone would take a "dietary supplement" that warned you not to take it if you have any medical condition, if you are taking any prescription medications, or if you are pregnant. When faced with a product seemingly containing harmless "natural" ingredients, wouldn't one always find such a warning suspicious?

A great deal of the bodybuilding pro hormone and/or PCT products warn you not to take them if you have or your family has a history of liver or kidney disease. And endocrine conditions.

Then they go on to say you should consult your physician before taking the product if you have any medical conditions. Can you imagine the scenario? Such and such has a medical problem. Such and such wants to use Clomed. So he goes to his doctor and asks, is it safe to take this. Doctor takes one look at label and laughs. Such and such already knew the doctor would laugh. He doesn't bother to ask his doctor. He may be dumb but he's not stupid.

Sir,
A very good article to read,even for people who don't know anything on the subject.
This site covers everything.Awesome!!!
